Aggressive behavior is a manifestation of basic activity of most living beings. The presence in the entire animal kingdom and the results of research on it gives the phenomenon of "multidimensional".

In the individual it can manifest in various levels:

Purely Physical, Emotional, Cognitive and Social.

On the emotional level it can appear as anger or rage, manifested through gestures and facial expression or a change of tone and volume. From a cognitive level it may be present as destructive fantasies, aggressive plans or ideas of persecution.

As social behavior may involve fighting, and be part of power / submission, both in situations dyadic (of two) and in groups.

When manifested in full sense, anger is an emotion not synchronous with sadness.

Aggressiveness is usually understood as directed outward, toward the other. However, the person may assault, directly or indirectly hurt himself. The endocrine system among mammals reveals the existence of three levels of control: The first has to do with the state of preparation for action (androgens, estrogen and luteinizing hormone). 

Aggressiveness is linked to the state of preparation for combat. The most powerful androgen is testosterone. It's scope is broader than the mere expression of aggressiveness.

Another factor is related to the rapid response to stress and involves catecholamines (epinephrine and norepinephrine) to maintain the physiological activity of the conduct of struggle, fear and flight, in situations requiring immediate response. During this period the sympathetic nervous system activity plays a key role.
Typical characteristics are:

  • rise in blood pressure,
  • tachycardia,
  • increased muscle tone,
  • raised hair
  • change of breath

Another factor is linked to the ability of a sustained response to stress (adrenal steroids). A serotonin modulation is attributed to a large group of normal and pathological behavior.

 

Metabolism in the central nervous system appears closely linked with emotions in general and in particular aggressiveness. It has been the subject of numerous studies for its relation with the so-called biological rhythms (sleep, seasonal, etc.)  The activity of this neurotransmitter is often balanced by other changes, such as dopamine and acetylcholine. Catecholamines, particularly norepinephrine and dopamine, have been the subject of numerous studies. They have been particularly associated with aggression.

Acetylcholine, can turn aggression into competitive and defensive irritants in laboratory animals.  

PSYCHOSOCIAL AGGRESSIVENESS

From the psychoanalytic perspective, aggression is defined as "a trend or set of trends that are acted in real behavior or fantasy, to harm another, to destroy or to humiliate etc. Aggression can take forms nonviolent and destructive action, when there is too much negative behavior.

Adler noted in 1908, the existence of an "aggressive push" not only in the genesis of psychological distress, but as something that is part of everyday life. Freud linked the "resistance to treatment with aggressiveness. Likewise, the "ambivalence" among its customers interpreted as the coexistence of struggle and affection.

Aggressiveness is primitive and an unconscious tendency with which it is born, and it would be modulated and socially internalized throughout life, particularly in children. Ruther Giller summarizes the many inputs and studies on the subject in the following key assumptions:  

1. The importance of family relationships and parenting in the early years.

2. The central role of intra unconscious factors.

3. Antisocial behavior is the result of a defective development of the personality.

4. Some crime cases are the result of the demonstration in the conduct of intra conflict ( "acting out").
